About David

David Rossetti is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people feeling isolated, anxious, or stuck in difficult relationships. He brings 28 years of practical experience in New York to each conversation. Sessions aim to make it easier to talk about painful feelings and take small steps forward.

He focuses on depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship struggles. He often helps people dealing with identity questions and sexual health concerns. His work includes support around grief, end-of-life issues, and the ripple effects of family and military experiences.

In sessions he listens closely and asks clear questions to identify what matters most. He pays attention to how communication and attachment patterns shape daily life. From there he helps people practice new ways of relating and managing strong emotions.

Clients can expect a calm, respectful tone and a steady process. Therapy is collaborative - goals are set together and progress is checked often. He aims to help people build resilience and find practical coping tools that fit their life.

David holds the LCSW-R credential, which indicates his New York licensure as a clinical social worker. He offers services in English and does not accept international clients. To begin, people follow the site’s Start Therapy steps to match and schedule with him.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

David uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in clear, practical ways. One common approach focuses on building skills to manage anxiety and mood swings, teaching coping strategies and gradual behavior changes to reduce day-to-day distress. Another approach centers on improving communication and attachment patterns, helping people notice interaction habits and practice different ways to connect and set boundaries.

Picking the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, daily routines, and what feels most helpful. Together they choose methods that match those needs and adjust them over time as progress is made.

The exact session formats for this clinician are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, cut travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes it simpler to continue care through moves or life transitions while keeping a regular schedule with a licensed professional.
